Well the Duke of Edinburgh is coming over for lunch on Friday but apart from that I'm pretty well free. Next week especially. Could you come up for lunch and a spirited afternoon of modelling gossip at MP next Wednesday? Some of the Sydney crowd are regulars, and we could show you some secret projects.

I have been looking for a deal on a Novarossi .28 buggy motor to convert for a B speed/proto, but with no good field haven't been too serious. At 26,000 rpm you are looking at maybe over 150 mph? depending on the lines and stuff. Is that piped?

No pipe, just open exhaust but 6.5" diameter is a bit of an exaggeration.

The prop started out at that diameter and is a bit less now.

In New South Wales, both combined and F2A speed are usually run off grass.

I was searching my engine storage boxes this morning and found these two Foxes. they may interest some of you Fox 35X Combat fans. There should be another box somewhere with two more and a heap of spares.

Yes there is something different about them.

The one on the right looks like my Blue Label Rat Racing 40, with the fat-topped cylinder in place. The left might be a second of the same that once had a throttle and exhaust baffle.

Went nuts with the camera last night. It's too cold to fly now for another 1/2 year. I like the "Stunt Girls" thing. McCoy .35 and .049, Fox .35, Axial converted dune buggy motor, Supertiger G15, and G15 RR.
